This is a modfolder for your HSFX5 installation. It was made with the permission of CharlieChap.

What this does:

It gives you a functional mods folder, with all the files needed to build a customised HSFX 5 installation, by adding mods and planes of choice.

It brings support for using SAS Buttons in this modfolder (SAS buttons for 4.101, version 8.4 or later), but, the installation has an original HSFX5 buttonsfile. Update this with the latest SAS Buttons as required.

Remember to disable your mods folder by placing a "-" in front of it, before using HSFX expert mode or playing HSFX servers online. You cannot use customised installs for online play with other vanilla HSFX users.

This also includes the language fix for those who need it (campaigns and ranks in russian). That is what is in the DGen adn Missions folders. Careers Fix by Potenz, raf ranks fix by McWolf

Also included in the MODS folder is a little mod that reduced the volume of aircraft stress sounds. Discard it if you wish.Also included is a customised Air.ini with placeholder. Beware that customising the air ini likewise in the files folder, and disabling the mods folder, will crash your game. Included is the original HSFX air ini for those who wish.

About the JSGME mods:Included are two essential ones. One is for use when you choose the "Default Sounds" jsgme option that came with HSFX, while using an SAS buttons. If you choose this option, also enable the SAS patch for it. The other is for if you choose the Tiger Flyby option that came with HSFX. Enable this is you enable the tiger flyby's while using SAS buttons. It also fixes the FOV bug in the default HSFX version, so , pure HSFX users may think of using it also.

Lastly, I also put in the screenshots as jpg's mod. Discard it if you wish.

-----------------------------

Installation:

Make sure all your jsgme mods are disabled before installation. you can enable again afterwards

Drag the folders in the download ( MODS, Dgen, Missions, jsgmemods ) into your main IL2 directory. When asked about replacing files, say yes. Update your buttons at SAS if you want to install new planes. (http://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,97.0.html). Only version 8.4 for 4.101 or later will work.

Kinda confused about something,I can install clean and patch all the way up to HSFX5.0.1 and that's what I see down in the corner when I start the game HSFX5.0.1 but,after I install this Modact for HSFX5.0 what I see in the corner when the game starts is HSFX5.0.By installing this Modact do I lose the 5.0.1 Hotfix or is it still there? Im using the 4.101 SAS Offline Buttons file if that makes a difference.
